Well......it's been almost a month, and I have barely lost any weight. I was really hoping for a 6-8 lb loss at this point, but it looks like I typically hover between a 2-4 lb loss every single week. That is just not going to cut it to get me back to my primo weight by beach vacation time in May. So it looks like I'm once again at the point of "you can't keep doing the same thing and expect different results". Therefore, I need to decide exactly what I want to change to make results happen the way I want them to. I would tell you what my plan is for Month Two, but I don't know what that plan is yet. I'll have to think about it! I don't want to do anything extreme and unrealistic (because that's just not my jam), but I need to do something different. But here's how the past week went.....it started out good, then the weekend hit.
